Lecture Notes: click on the lecture titles below to access notes from class Description ANT 3153 is a survey of the prehistory of North America and archaeological approaches to its investigation. The geographical breadth of the course is immense and you will have the opportunity to learn something about the prehistory of every region of the North American continent. Equally immense is the cultural, social, and ecological diversity of the continent’s regional prehistories. To address this vast subject matter, the course is organized around a series of current research topics: (1) Who were the first human inhabitants of North America, how and when did they get here, and what developments ensued in their settlement of this new world? (2) How do we define and account for the diversity of prehistoric hunter-gatherers of North America?

    Extractions: Valerie Ann Polino Trying to find out when man first came to America, and how he lived during the hundreds of centuries before the Europeans arrived, the archaeologist is like a child trying to solve a picture puzzle when he has in his possession only one percent of t he pieces. As a result he must look to other fields of science to fit together a series of clues to give a generalized impression and explanation of prehistoric culture and society. The artifact is the most fundamental element of archaeological investigation. It is commonly defined as anything which exhibits any physical attributes that can be assumed to be the result of human activity. Archaeologists look at their finds not merely as objects to be examined and admired but as vital parts of the extinct society which made them. The ultimate goal is to study the society that created the objects, not just the objects. A different type of archaeology, called new archaeology as opposed to traditional archaeology, has developed over the past thirty years. Traditional archaeology looks at the material remains of an extinct culture in order to define what ideas, values and beliefs the group shared and passed down to the next generation. The new archaeologist sees culture as a link between behavioral patterns and material items. The culture that a society develops therefore is the direct result of the way humans learn to cope with their environment.

    Extractions: Your browser does not support javascript Oldest North American Mummy Volume 49 Number 5, September/October 1996 by Lara J. Asher A mummy excavated in 1940 and stored at the Nevada State Museum in Carson City was recently dated to ca. 7420 B.C., making it the oldest mummy ever discovered in North America. Donald Tuohy and Amy Dansie of the Nevada State Museum say the mummy, a male about 45 years old, was one of several gathered from caves in Nevada's Churchill County. Its excellent state of preservation had led earlier researchers to believe it was ca. 2,000 years old. Dansie and Tuohy were astonished when radiocarbon tests of hair and bone and two mats covering the body yielded dates more than 7,000 years older. Discovered during salvage excavations in advance of a guano-mining project, the mummy was found lying on a fur blanket dressed in a twisted skin robe with leather moccasins on its feet and a twined mat sewn around its head and shoulders. A similar mat was wrapped around the lower portion of the body and bound under the feet. Skin remained on the back and shoulders as well as a small tuft of straight dark hair, which changed to reddish-brown when exposed to light and air. The man may have died from complications associated with a skull fracture or abscessed teeth, according to Gentry Steele of

" There are extensive and impressive evidences for the authenticity of the Book of Mormon as an ancient document dealing with real people and places, contrary to the endlessly and mindlessly repeated mantras of anti-Mormons. " Statement by Jef Lindsay " Archeologists and other scholars have long probed the hemisphere's past and the society does not know of anything found so far that has substantiated the Book of Mormon. " Statement by the National Geographic Society " ...faith in the scriptures—whether the Bible or the Book of Mormon—must rest upon something other than scholarly consensus and archaeological evidence... Ultimately, God will reveal what is true in such matters and we must trust him for our answers. " The Newsletter of the Foundation for Ancient Research and Mormon Studies , 1997-OCT " It can be stated definitely that there is no connection between the archeology of the New World and the subject matter of the Book of Mormon. There is no correspondence whatever between archeological sites and cultures as revealed by scientific investigations and as recorded in the Book of Mormon, hence the book cannot be regarded as having any historical value from the standpoint of the aboriginal peoples of the New World.

    Extractions: Reflections of Our Past: The Archaeology of South Carolina What is Archaeology? Archaeology is the scientific study of our through the careful excavation and thorough analysis of material objects, or artifacts, and other evidence preserved in the ground. through the detailed process of site discovery, excavation, laboratory analysis and research, archaeologists are able to reconstruct how Native Americans, Euro-Americans, and African Americans lived before us. Archaeology tells us not only about the wealthy and powerful, but also how the common people spent their lives in South Carolina. Without archaeology, we would know much less about the rich and varied heritage of our State and about our past. Archaeology, like history, provides us with ties to the past and hopes for the future. The First South Carolinians: The Paleoindians (12,000 B.C. to 8,000 B.C.) The earliest inhabitants of South Carolina were the descendants of Asian emigrants who crossed into North America from Siberia about 14,000 years ago (maybe even earlier). These people, called Paleoindians , followed the gradual movement of large game animals across a land bridge connecting Asia and North America. This passageway, called Beringia, was exposed when the late Pleistocene glaciation caused the sea level to fall. Although there were never ice sheets in South Carolina, the climate was cold and now extinct animals roamed over much of our state.
